Sobha’s own July 2026 statement named Sobha Reserve alongside Sobha Hartland, Sobha Hartland 2, Sobha One and Verde by Sobha as part of a planned 6,819 handovers across five projects in 2026, worth about AED 21.6 billion. It did not give a building level date for Sobha Reserve itself.

What is the Sobha Reserve payment plan?

Portal listings describe an 80/20 plan, 80% paid during construction and 20% on handover.

As a worked example only, for a villa listed from AED 10.9 million: the 4% Dubai Land Department registration fee alone would be about AED 436,000, on top of whatever percentage is due at booking under the 80/20 schedule. Ask for the exact booking instalment in writing before you pay.

  2. The Dubai Land Department project status for your building, through DLD’s project status enquiry service.
  3. How the 80/20 payment plan is structured for your specific unit, and how the 4% DLD fee is billed alongside it.
  4. Whether your unit is one of the 6,819 Sobha named for 2026, and ask Sobha directly for a building level date if it has passed.
